Seriously quit it!
You're ruining it for everyone else who actually uses the hardware for what it is intended for, gaming!
Right now the graphics card I am looking at for my multi-year upgrade has a $250-$300 markup on what it originally launched as($500~)!
Not to mention it's bleeding down to the lower tier cards adding as much as $100!

It's just the shock value and venting mostly.
I have seen scarcity price premiums on hardware before and popularity premiums, but this just takes the cake literally as I have never seen a 50%+ markup before due to one simple use.
